Pembrolizumab in Treating Participants With Metastatic, Recurrent or Locally Advanced Cancer and Genomic Instability

Is NCT03428802 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies Pembrolizumab for brca1 gene mutation.

Phase 2RecruitingRutgers, The State University of New JerseyNCT03428802Data as of May 2026

Treatment: PembrolizumabThis phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating participants with cancer that has spread to other places in the body, has come back or has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes. Monoclonal antibodies such as, pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
